More quotes by Will Rogers
You shake a slogan at an American and it's just like showing a hungry dog a bone.
Will Rogers
When you find yourself in a hole, quit digging.
Will Rogers
... while the Republicans are smart enough to make money, the Democrats are smart enough to get in office every two or three times a century and take it away from 'em.
Will Rogers
We are always yapping about the 'Good Old Days' and how we look back and enjoy it, but I tell you there is a lot of hooey to it. There is a whole lot of all our past lives that wasn't so hot.
Will Rogers
Funny thing about being a U.S. senator, the only thing the law says you have to be is 30 years old. Not another single requirement. They just figure that a man that old got nobody to blame but himself if he gets caught in there.
Will Rogers
Never slap a man who is chewing tobacco.
Will Rogers
Course, that's the trouble with politics, it breeds politics! So that makes it pretty hard to stamp out.
Will Rogers
Samuel Gompers has spent his life trying to keep labor from working too hard and has succeeded beyond his wildest dreams.
Will Rogers
In Hollywood the woods are full of people that learned to write but evidently can't read. If they could read their stuff, they'd stop writing.
Will Rogers
A president just can't make much showing against congress. They lay awake nights, thinking up things to be against the president on.
Will Rogers
See where Congress passed a two billion dollar bill to relieve bankers' mistakes. You can always count on us helping those who have lost part of their fortune, but our whole history records nary a case where the loan was for the man who had absolutely nothing. Our theory is to help only those who can get along, even if they don't get a loan.
Will Rogers
We all joke about Congress but we can't improve on them. Have you noticed that no matter who we elect, he is just as bad as the one he replaces?
Will Rogers
We have the best Congress that money can buy.
Will Rogers
Funny to watch these Senators switching back and forth on Prohibition. Politics is a great character builder. You have to take a referendum to see what your convictions are for that day.
Will Rogers
People don't change under governments. Governments change. People remain the same.
Will Rogers
The trouble with land is that they're not making it anymore.
Will Rogers
Common sense is not an issue in politics--it's an affliction.
Will Rogers
Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. My folks were Indian. Both my mother and father had Cherokee blood in them. I was born and raised in Indian Territory. 'Course we're not the Americans whose ancestors came over on the Mayflower, but we met them at the boat when they landed.
Will Rogers
I see where we are starting to pay some attention to our neighbors to the south. We could never understand why Mexico wasn't just crazy about us, for we have always had their good will, and oil and minerals, at heart
Will Rogers
If you feel the urge, don't be afraid to go on a wild goose chase. What do you think wild geese are for anyway?
